The PTO plan includes time off required under all state and local paid leave laws to include sick and safe leave. UnityPoint Recognized Holidays: New Year’s Day, Memorial Day, Fourth of July, Labor Day, Thanksgiving Day, Christmas Day. UnityPoint Health PTO Accrual Chart YEARS OF SERVICE COMPLETED PTO ACCRUED PER HOUR* MAXIMUM ANNUAL ACCRUAL* (BASED ON 2080 HOURS ANNUALLY) MAXIMUM CARRYOVER 0-1 0.09231 192 hours / 24 days 320 2-3 0.10385 216 hours / 27 days 320 4-8 0.11539 240 hours / 30 days 320 9-13 0.13847 288 hours / 36 days 320 14+ 0.16154 336 hours / 42 days 320 * To calculate your PTO accrual per pay period, multiply the “PTO Accrued per Hour” number above by the number of hours you are paid per pay period (not to exceed 80 hours per pay period or 2080 hours annually). For example, if you are a team member who has 16 years of service and are a .75 FTE or work 60 hours per pay period, your calculation to project your PTO accrual in the future would be as follows: 0.1615 x 60 = 9.69 accrued hours in a pay period. * In order to receive a PTO Cash election, you must be an active, benefit eligible team member at the time of the payout. Executives and Physicians are not eligible for PTO Cash. ** PTO cash elections can only be made within the election period. You will not be able to make changes, including cancellation, to your PTO cash election(s) outside of the election period. *** While there is no required remaining balance, if you elect to cash out more hours than you have in your bank at the time of the payout dates, you will not receive the full elected cash-out amount. Instead, your payout will be reduced to the number hours in your bank at the time of the payout. PTO Cash Benefit eligible team members are eligible to cash out up to 40 hours of PTO, in 5-hour increments, annually.
